invading countries unilaterally and rebuilding them is just plain stupid

the results are bearing themselves out...

if anything we as a nation are more hated than before 9/11

but you guys aren't concerned about what's real and what will work - not when it conflicts with pretty picture the administration paints.

Whether or not this country is hated a little more or a little less really isn't the issue. The issue is people acting on their hate. Having a few less or more people hate us really isn't a solution to the acting out on the hate. I prefer to try and stop those that would act on their hate than try to bribe them into not acting on it. The thing about blackmail is once you start paying, the fee keeps going up until they have to act again to get your attention.

Neo cons assume that the only alternative to their way is appeasment and bribery

That's not going to work i agree - clinton's "foreign policy" was an abortion

the only thing these people respect is fear and brutality - that's why saddam stayed in power for 35 years and we can't get the power on in bagdhad for more than an hour every three days

the only way to stop the next 9/11 is to get our own house in order and secure our own borders - intelligent isolationism with ruthless special forces and weaning ourselves off of the petro-addiction - that's what I would propose

the US has been admired and hated long before we were born -nothing to do w/ Bush
I dont lose sleep over what China, Belgium and Turkey thinks of us
or libs
we invaded countries unilaterally if it was deemed necessary
way before this admin
Kosovo-yeah that was a good one! only after 250,000 people died
or our humanitarian efforts to save lives in Rwanda-wait that didnt happen

The only way to stop terrorism is to kill the terrorists.

If building a democracy works, fine. If it doesn't, the iraqi's will prove that arabs/muslims don't deserve to be free and productive. Then the WWII scenario comes into play: kill them until they surrender. Show them the brutality they crave.

The liberal way of giving up and giving in is nothing more than an American surrender.

according to latest fox news poll 58% of Americans want troops out of Iraq by the end of the year

67% believe we cannot win this war

i know it's hard to be marginalized Flushing Jet but please get a tissue and stop crying, it's embarassing for everyone

Because you know more than "God". You advertise this at every opportunity, NYM. You might even walk around life wondering why people just don't "get it" like you do, right?

I thought that was very good answer. I would have to say everyone knows more then "God", considering that "God" is nothing more then a made up concept that varies between beliefs. You advertise your religious beliefs at every opportunity so what's the difference? And I'm sure you might walk around trying to figure out why people like me just don't "get it" again what's the difference between me and you? I believe one thing and voice it, you believe another and voice it.

I have never once said that I'm positive about anything to do with religion. This is what I believe and because you don't agree you think it is laughable. It is funny when you disagree with God or religious views, people that are religious flip. I have no problem with what you believe or even with ST99 believes but I do think that you are both wrong but I also think that I might be wrong and everyone else could be wrong also. You make statements that you believe are true but I'm not aloud to consider them false because you believe them. How does that work?
